Ingredients
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 ½ lbs sweet onions, sliced in rounds (I was a little low on onion so I used less)
  • 1 lb sweet potato peeled and cut in ½” cubes (I used 2 medium sized sweet potatoes)
  • 2 Tbs Soy Sauce
  • 1 orange, juiced and zested
  • ¾ lb pork tenderloin cut in ½” cubes. ( I used a small boneless sirloin pork roast - about 1.5-2 lbs)
  • 1 large Granny Smith Apple (I had a Gala on hand)
  • Amounts are variable, depending on what you have on hand!
Instructions
  1. Heat oil in skillet, add onion and sauté, stirring occasionally for 20 minutes, to caramelize.
  2. In the meantime, simmer the potatoes a medium saucepan, in water for 10 min – covered.
  3. Add soy sauce and orange juice to the skillet with onions. Then add the pork and sauté, stirring occasionally for 5 min, until pork is cooked through.
  4. Cut apple into ½” chunks and add to pork, cook for 1 min. Remove from heat and stir in the sweet potatoes, being carefully not to let them get mashed.
  5. Serve.
